This shot of a post for hanging buntings reminds me of the cross. And the image of a cross brings to mind many things, one of which is the burdens that we carry with us in our lives.
Like this shot of the silhouetted dark cross, sometimes the crosses we bear can be unbearably dark and dispiriting.
During such moments in life, when all around you seems gloomy, bleak and murky, do not forget that where there are dark shadows, there must be a light source somewhere. You just need to turn around and look up to see the high light behind your cross.
That light source may just be that modicum of assurance that you need to see you through and who knows that source of Light may also be the answer to the cross or crosses in your life too.
So hang in there and look for the high light behind your cross. :)

I like the photo very much, I didn't notice the hooks until I read about the buntings. The cross is a pre-chistian symbol, it symbolizes the connectedness of "up" and "down" (vertical and horixontal bar, heaven and earth), when one thinks about it, everything becomes in harmony.
